A PSA 10 currently sells for about €1.944,77, raw the card sits at €5,01 — 388,2× as much. Of 5.133 copies already graded, 2 % received a 10 and 53 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €58,35 on average, before fees and shipping. Rule of thumb: submit when the value at a realistic grade is at least double the raw value — which is the case here. Centering decides it: an off-centre card will not get a 10. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 37 auctions the median was €2,86, across 129 fixed-price sales €5,21. Fixed price therefore fetched about 82 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €3,00 and €6,00, with a median of €4,26. Selling fast lands you nearer the lower end; with patience, good photos and a complete title the upper end is achievable.

The cheapest genuine sales were around €2,08. Offers well below €1,25 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

From real sales: German €11,02 (11), Italian €4,14 (33), English €3,72 (182). German fetches about 196 % more.

lastsold uses only real sales — eBay plus auction houses like Goldin & Fanatics — recent sales count more (recency weighting), outliers and fakes are removed. It's not an estimate but actual sold prices, separated by condition, language and grading.
